5703.39.20.30 - Measuring not more than 5.25 m2 in area (665)

This HTS category, 5703.39.20.30, specifically classifies tufted carpets and other textile floor coverings made from man-made fibers, which are not made up (i.e., are not finished goods with edges bound, etc.), and that measure not more than 5.25 square meters in area. The defining characteristic for this subcategory is the size limitation of 5.25 square meters or less, distinguishing it from larger items within the broader "Other" designation for man-made fiber floor coverings.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 5703.39.20.90, hinges solely on the area measurement. While both fall under the "Other" classification for man-made textile floor coverings and are not made up, 5703.39.20.30 exclusively covers those with a surface area not exceeding 5.25 square meters. The sibling category, 5703.39.20.90, would encompass similar non-made-up tufted floor coverings of other man-made fibers that *exceed* this 5.25 square meter threshold.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 5703.39.20.30 relies on the precise fulfillment of all preceding criteria: being a tufted carpet or floor covering, made of other man-made textile materials, not finished or made up, and crucially, measuring no more than 5.25 square meters in area. Examples would include cut-and-loop or single-level loop pile tufted rug samples or rolls that fall within this size limitation.
